I did a mess with an Aeropress this weekend. Forgot to properly screw the filter in before flipping it over a mug and washed my entire kitchen counter with coffee.
My scale was right on ground zero for the mess, and it was entirely washed with coffee and had coffee grounds all over it, including inside.

So now I'm on the market for a new scale, looking at a Hario Polaris. I knew it looked fancy, but even the gravity used to calculate the weight is configurable. :blobfoxcofeowo:

And together with it I guess I'll get myself a V60 size 1, to avoid making this sort of mess again.

After decades of artistic liberties, folk singer Buffy Sainte-Marie' admits she is not and her music prize was revoked.

That same day, the of Recording Arts and Sciences said in a news release: "Following a thorough review, consultations with the CARAS Advisory Committee, and in light of recent information, including Ms. Sainte-Marie’s confirmation that she is not Canadian, will revoke Buffy Sainte-Marie's and Canadian Music induction in accordance with its eligibility requirements."

While long swirling rumors of native ancestry go unchecked , it has been investigated that the octogenarian folk music artist had no genetic ties to indigenous tribal ancestry. Sainte-Marie has said that when she was a young adult she was by a family in the Canadian of and has "lived with uncertainty" about her true heritage.

Buffy Sainte-Marie has now also been stripped of her Polaris Music Prize, her five Juno Awards, and her induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

Sainte-Marie recently confirmed that she is an American citizen, not a Canadian citizen. Questions remain around her Indigenous identity. Apparently, the awards have been stripped because she doesn't meet eligibility requirements.

Polaris Dawn mission blasts off with plans for first commercial spacewalk

Four astronauts have blasted out of the atmosphere as part of a privately funded five-day mission that aims to carry out the first commercial spacewalk.

, the American billionaire founder of the electronic payment company , is bankrolling the mission and acting as commander of the crew.

It is the second trip Isaacman has charted. In 2021, he flew on the mission, the first orbital spaceflight by an - crew, which included a cancer survivor as well as a data engineer who won his seat in a raffle draw.

Isaacman, who has thousands of hours in various aircraft, is joined this time by a retired military fighter pilot and two employees of SpaceX, the Elon Musk-owned company that is operating the mission.

SpaceX’s rocket launched from Nasa’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Tuesday morning after several delays.
A previous attempt to launch last month was postponed hours before liftoff after a small helium leak on the launchpad.
It was later pushed back further when the same make of rocket was temporarily grounded by US regulators for checks.

The trip will last about five days and take an oval-shaped orbit that travels as far as 870 miles (1,400km) from Earth’s surface
